“We know now that overwhelming trauma causes massive biochemical changes throughout the brain and body.”

Correct.

It’s a permanent rewire of the brain.

It can be managed, but not cured. And it eventually contributes to the early death of everyone who gets it.

I actually read a thread on FR I the last three months or so that discussed a new way they are trying to treat PTSD, and it sounds like it has the effect of “unwiring” the brain with respect to those events.

It sounded like they had an outstanding response in people they have been doing it on, but...I can’t find the thread.
